Natl Active & Retired Fed Employees Assn

The National Active & Retired Federal Employees Association represents the nation's federal employees and seeks to improve retirement benefits for federal retirees, current employees and their families. Like most unions, the group overwhelmingly supports Democrats.

The union lobbies on pension reform, collective bargaining rights for federal workers and the privatization of Social Security. Recently it has opposed measures to reduce the expected retirement income of retired federal workers and supported legislation that ensures federal and postal employees can pay health benefit premiums with pre-tax money. The organization's former name was the National Association of Retired Federal Employees.
